Alyson - seriously 21 lbs is really really good. I gained 65 with my first. You are doing just fine.
I gained 60 with my first, so I'm definitely doing better this time, but the range my OB gave me at the beginning of the pregnancy was 10-20 pounds total (leaning towards 10), and I'm already past that with 6 weeks to go. I don't seem to have much control over it right now, which is why I feel like I'm failing
. Blah!

Fhewww. Finally seems I'm stabilizing. Guess I should have been tracking all along! The break felt good, but watching those numbers go up and up got me back on track! Feeling more confident, still hoping to keep to a 30 lb gain... but, asked hubby for his weight, which was 169 something... and wondered if I could still make my goal to stay under him?! We shall see!!

16 lb gain so far, trying to keep it under 165 total. 5'3" 29 years old.
This week I felt like I wanted to sleep the entire time. I let myself have a major cheat day with all the candy I wanted and a regular soda and captain crunch for dinner and not much water, that turned into 2 cheat days and now I'm sitting here trying to get used to eating salad again. It's a slippery slope but I've got to keep this weight gain from creeping up like this. I got up to like 180 last time and I do NOT want to go there again. I'm buying an elliptical this weekend to get more exercise in.0 -

Ugh, what a week! I have been sooooo swollen this week even though I haven't gone totally overboard eating. I couldn't even think about moving my wedding rings until this morning when I managed to take them off (with a fight) and I still have an indent on my finger tonight! I stepped on the scale earlier this week and it said I was up 3 lbs from last week (159 something) but knew I was swollen... it worried me a little bit, but my hands and face weren't too visibly swollen, so I figured I was okay... the thought of pre-eclampsia freaks me out.
@scoopskipotato I have been so tired this week too - and last week if I'm being honest.
@AlysonG2 try not to be discouraged! Your body is going to do what it's going to do unfortunately at this point - I think you should definitely give yourself a pat on the back for doing better this pregnancy!
@TANNE21 I like the idea of goals. Mine this week will be to incorporate some sort of strength training 3x this week.
@poke987 way to go!!! A good reminder to myself to keep tracking 'cause it seems to be paying off for you!0 -

Goal: gain between 15-25 lbs (or to at least avoid hitting 200)
I popped this week for sure and I have a feeling I was was a little bloated yesterday when I weighed in so I had wanted to weigh in today instead, but I forgot. I didn't do great at tracking and staying under last week, but this week I feel so much more capable. Funny how that goes in cycles, eh? I'm hoping to be back in the 180's next week.

Poke my husband stays at 169 also and like you I was determined not to go over his weight with this pregnancy(he is 6'0). When I gave birth to my second I ended up heavier than him at 175 lbs. My back up plan was to plump him up but that has never worked because of his freaky fast metabolism and work keeps him too busy.0

Yay, you're getting so close!! And you've done a GREAT job!
Thanks Ladies! And right back at you both! Your check-ins and support have helped me stay accountable - I feel very lucky to have shared this pregnancy time with you two!
@AlysonG2 - you are in the home stretch too and have done amazing! Do you remember how you felt during your first at this time? You are in an entirely different place now!
And @katiebrew you are doing FABULOUS! It won't be long for you either
You should be so proud of where you are so far!!
And everyone else checking in this thread - it takes a lot of courage to post updates - thank you all for being inspirational!!
I wish there was a place to keep up with the weekly check-ins after baby is born. I've looked into some post-baby groups but haven't found any that seem very active. I wasn't sure if a new thread in this group would be appropriate....thoughts? I would love to see how others are doing weekly post pregnancy.0 -

I follow the Post Partum Pack and read through the how much weight have you lost thread on there. It's not so active this month but I plan to post updates there after this baby gets here. It's not high-traffic but it's something. If you come across something better please post it here I'd like some new ones to check out!

Oh, I would LOVE this!! Logging my weight somewhere publicly helps me stay on track SO much! Please let me know where you decide to start it!

Unfortunately this is my hubby fattened up! He used to hover in the 130s... i weighed more than he did for most of our relationship! I had only recently gotten lower than him... and now with the baby... back up I go! I think I'll have him best by the end, but I know that I can drop it... and he's been saying he wants to take off 15 or 20 for a year now.... so, I'm hopeful I'll be able to pass him pretty quickly on the way back down!0 -

I had a low motivation week all around this week; I didn't work out much, water was low and eating was pretty careless. I even used the quick add calorie option when logging a few times because I didn't feel like tracking all of my snacking. I think I'm just ready to be done but I want to finish with a bang so I'm ready to get back on the saddle. I like goals too @katiebrew - they give me something to track….I'm such a list person I had an ultrasound yesterday and they are estimating baby to be 8# 2oz. My Dr offered to induce at 39 weeks (next week) but turns out their schedule is full until well after my due date (UGH!) so I’m on a waiting list. I’m just hoping that I go on my own before that. Everything happens for a reason, right?!
Goals:
-Log 4 hours of intentional exercise
-Drink 2 of my 28oz water bottles during the weekdays & 1 on the weekend days
-Plan my breakfast & lunch for the weekend to try and avoid making careless, spontaneous decisions
I'm thinking we should try and reinvigorate the existing thread in the Post Partum Pack group that @scoopskipotato suggested. There’s going to be a better chance of having higher participation there because it’s established. This way if we come up with post-partum related questions along the way, we will be in a group that is more suited. Hopefully if we all start posting more, it will encourage more traffic. I am open to anything else though!
The search feature for groups seems to be missing on MFP so I had to use Google to find the group. Here is the link for anyone else interested:

Well, I guess the stabilization was too good to be true! Been housebound this week with sick kiddos, so no real good exercise... maybe that played a roll, as I think I've done pretty well at staying on track. Some evening snacking creatine back, but didn't think I did too badly... guess I should make accurate logging my goal for the week! And more movement!

I really need to be careful. It has been hot here and I haven't been exercising because the heat kills me, then I had sick kids (again), so I was stuck at home in the heat, letting myself indulge way too much. Hoping I can do better this week. I am so jealous of you ladies who are on the home stretch.0 -

I just did mine yesterday and it was so much worse than I remember!! I had to choke down that drink especially the last little bit. The first time I didn't think it was so bad. I hope yours goes smoothly!

That's too funny @scoopskipotato! I actually found it better than I remember!!! Weird, huh? I remember having trouble finishing last time too so this time I pretty much plugged my nose and guzzled it down in two parts... I was expecting to feel disgusting after but was okay. Now to wait for the results....0 -

AHHHH! Well, I have been significantly eating over my calories and my workouts aren't enough to burn through my monster sized dinner portions (and midnight snacking....
) so I have to say that a large gain is deserved & expected. However, 4# is pretty excessive so I'm thinking some has to be water....I hope! I am mad at myself for losing my self control (and using the 'I'm only pregnant for a little bit longer' excuse) over the last couple of weeks but I'm happy with staying active. Now to try and find a better balance. 1 week (hopefully!) left!
Goals:
-Find low calorie dessert options for late cravings
-Log 4 hours of intentional exercise
-Drink 56oz of water per day
Hope your tests went good @katiebrew & @scoopskipotato!0 -

Still bitter that my doctor told me that I needed to diet yesterday ("eat more vegetables, eliminate cards, don't drink juice or soda"). Like I haven't been trying to make healthy decisions and watch portion control. I don't think 14 lbs is bad, in fact I was a little proud of it, but now I'm a little pissed and annoyed. Yes, I understand that I'm overweight, but nobody likes being told to watch their weight when they are actively watching their weight.
Anyway...I'm done venting now.
